The poem ”Aqui venimos a pasar hamb

The poem ”Aqui venimos a pasar hambre y amarguras” is written by Babara Brinson Curiel. The poem is about the the harsh and unfair life, the Mexicans live. The poems settings is not restricted to any specific place, and could take place in any mexcian ghetto in the US. Suffering, the loss of hope and unfamiliar could be a few of the themes.

The poem denigrates mexicans. In the poem, the mexicans have lost all hope and faith. They live in a bad place where nobody likes them, and their work is killing them. The first verse is about the mexicans crossing the border and leaving all hope and love at the border. ” a colgar nuestros ojos y esperanzas de cercos de alambre” - And hang our eyes and expectations, in wired fencing.
In the second verse the mexicans have reached the ghetto they will be living in. It paints a picture of a ghetto without hope and there is nothing they can do about it. And the third verse is about the same thing. Like they suddenly realise that ”the american dream” is not for them.
Verse four tells us that this is the way it has been for generations. Nothing have changed, and for generations the mexicans have been stuck in places, and jobs like this.
The next verse is about is also about the jobs they can get. It is described as a marriage between hunger and soap. ( A marriage between the hungry mexicans and the bad jobs (dishwasher).
In the sixth verse the author refers to the crime rate in the ghettos, with the police in the area at all times. Only few moments to sleep, only to be dirsturbed by sirens. It could also be a way to exhibit the police and their smear campaign against the mexicans.
In verse 7 line 3-4 it says ”a quedarnos boquiabiertos en filas, de uva y fresca” and refers to the job as a person who picks strawberries or grapes, the ”typical” job for an sterotype illgal mexican. In verse 8, it refers to mexicans as a shadow for the moist ground. This a way of dehumanizing the mexicans, and makes the mexicans a tool rather than a human.
The two last verses is about the mexicans dying, cold and alone, far away from home.

The two poems shows two different pictures of the lifes of Mexicans.

The poem ”we would like you to know” is more of an ”enough is enough” statement. Its like the mexicans are rallying together, and will work for a better future, in contrast to our poem where it seems like there is no solution to their problems, because it has been hopeless for so many years. Our poem seems stuck, the people it tells of cant move, back or fourth, as to the other poem, who only moves forward. It tells of the past, and works for a better future.
Both poems is subective, but have different views. Our poem is more like a narrator telling a story, the poem ”we would like you to know” is like a lot of mexicans sending the american people a message.
